Enjoyed the walk to GZ but didn't find the cache.
Found a broken bong and some old pillows though.
Area needs a CITO event.

Drive past this park a lot and finally today, drove too the park for a walk and pick up Geo or two. This was the first we found.
Thanks for the cache.

Quick find whilst taking a late afternoon stroll in the park. Cache found in good condition. Park very dry at present. Many thanx
Geo-daughter had a few hours of lectures at Flinders Uni. I had a few hours to stroll around the Shepherds Hill Recreation Park grabbing some smilies.
Enjoyed the stroll in to grab this cache. Plenty of washing on the balconies of the nearby flats but no muggle eyes that I could see. Quickly found. Thanks Waterlogged. Did you provide the seat on the way in?

**Yay!** I thought it was lots of fun to do. I went with **FourW** and had lots of fun.
I haven't found many caches recently, but I wasn't going to miss one today! I dragged Tilkache along with me and we had a nice little walk down to the woodpile. I used to drive past here every workday for a couple of years, and even dropped some mobile caches off on a few occasions, but never stopped off to do many caches. Only a few to go now,
we are on holiday from england and went for a bike ride in the park and found it tftc
I could win an award for most caches found but not logged online. Please forgive this very generic log. If I admired your cache you'll get a favourite point from me and I'll likely come back and edit this log once I've caught up. If this generic log makes you unhappy - delete it. Life's too short to worry over it, I had fun finding your cache either way. Cheers!
SEMIK, Moneydork, muggle partner and I went caching
Meeting at SEMIK's, I suprised Moneydork with some L&P chocolate which I'd brought back from New Zealand for him His face was priceless!
We started out with tea at Casuarina at Marion first [^] then cached while dodging the spasmodic rain that fell as a large storm front moved over the state bringing with it lightning and thunder Sushilord hadn't wanted to get wet so he stayed home, possibly drinking his bottle of L&P from NZ
4 finds for me and as always, lots of laughter and joking!
I'd been here before with Dr Owl but the cache wasn't in place. Tonight it was and so a find was made!
Thankfully muggle partner was behind me as my jandals started to slip on a small muddy bank but he caught me and held me up [:X]

F(H)ound it! 12:00noon
Visiting Adelaide from Queanbeyan with the Ridgeo-pup.
I was accompanied by newby friend, MsDarkly73 and her geohound.
MsDarkly73 spotted the cache first although may not be able to log as it is a member only cache, I think.
I placed the pencil I had "borrowed" from the PonyClub in this cache.
It smells like garlic with every step from the weed growing thickly everywhere. We don't have this plant back home. The dogs were trying to eat it without much success TFTC Waterlogged

A surprisingly nice park with walking trails that I've never visited, despite driving past hundreds of times. Well placed cache, not too difficult to find. Hello neighbours.

Found it with geo daughter after a day at the museum. Had to carry her after first 10 metres.
LTrain the finder with Fishwhisperer, Horsewhisperer, MTrain, FTrain and daddy GT.
Great area. Took a little while to find as my GPS fix wasn't great. Need to spend more time in the area exploring. TFTC.
Found It!
An interesting little spot I've never been to before. Interesting bit of history to!

We popped in around lunch time to find a cache to keep the daily streak alive, even during the week this park is busy, we have walked up the other way from the carpark and for some reason by using the app on the phone we have missed this cache in our search area, but not today.
Thanks for the interesting info on the history of the area, as we usually just think of this area as a good steep walk to the top with great views when we get there, at least this cache wasn't up hill, thanks for that.
Thanks for the cache Waterlogged and the history. found, signed and replaced safe and sound as found.

Heading south with 3LG to do some caching and ingressing. We made a quick stop here and went for a little walk.
An inappropriate item was found in the cache. It was removed & it is now adorning a tree!

Out and about with Ismartis doing a few caches and some Ingressing as we head down south, after a short walk the cache was soon found. TFTC
First for they day - I hope! Good co-ords brought me straight to the cache - TFTC!!
found it... Pity about all the rubbish... But still a lovely area. took a little bear and left bubbles and Xmas cheer.
One of the trinkets is all about safety. Interesting.
Yet another part of the world I drive past every day and didn't know existed. The bird life is amazing.

Easy find! Lovely area to walk around, quite soothing- apart from the noise of the cars
Quick find before my first night explore of the park.
No writing stick in container.
Sorry, I didn't have a spare, and knew I needed mine later.

Surprised to see it just sitting there in plain sight and not hidden,especially with so many muggles around.
Found it pretty easy after a 5 minute walk from carpark , left 2 loombands and took a policeman. Nice spot !
Tried looking for this one on the way home from work, but ran out of light. Will try again another day.
Lovely day for a walk, near car park. The birds sure sound happy. Left kookaburra magnet took triceratops. Surprised the muggles in the neighbouring apartment block don't spot cachers out their windows. TFTC!
Found it with geodaughter late yesterday. A easy find. Wasn't covered up much. My first official find as a geocacher! TFTC
Don't come down South much ... so was in the area today ... and had a few hours to go caching!
What an enjoyable time and great weather to do so!
Parked the car in the park's carpark .... and then did the short trek to the first of three that were within easy walking distance.... got to GZ and was a bit worried about the warm weather, the long grass, and the nooks and crannies that potentially I was going to be putting my had near. Fortunately came up with the quick find.... and no slithery things in sight!
Was able to put some stash in the nice sized cache to make it more interesting for the junior cachers!
Seek3r-ed and found!

Decided to take a little detour after school and pick up a few caches around the bottom of Sheppard's Hill great location though the path to the cache got me limbo-ing a few times... ^-^ TFTC
A quick solo hunt by Arcticfox, of the Winterfox Clan. LOG signed, and returned. Nice hide!
